Personally I really appreciate the poetic cinema of posting my sweet tooth season 2 fix it on the one year anniversary of season 2 being released

"So you'll help us?" She considered him. Johnny seemed nice enough, he'd saved her life after all, but she hadn't forgotten what the Last Men stood for. They believed that hybrids should be eradicated, and no amount of niceties would make her forget what they'd do to her kids if she'd let them. But, it seemed they'd do just that whether she helped them or not. And if she really could be any use to them, it would be incredible. She may believe that they’d destroyed the planet, but she hadn’t given up on humanity just yet.

OR: I wasn't happy with how Johnny's character arc ended in season 2, so I rewrote it with my OC

Can't believe I actually finishes series 2. In all my rewatch es I've always stopped at like ep 7 because I don't want to watch That scene with the Abbots

Here's the thing. Here's the thing. HERE'S THE THING. During jeps funeral speech he mentions life lost, and we see a shot of the dead last men, along with Johnny's guitar case (indicating that he is among the dead to be mourned) and the statue of Ganesh.

Now, obviously this looks like an indication that Rani is also joining them, but immediately after that we see her alive and well riding a horse into the distance.

I swear to God she's alive, and if we don't see her in season 3 I'm going to be so upset

#If anything the Ganesh statue is an indication of Adis impending death #Possibly at the hands of the sick or another character #Given that Ganesh belonged to him initially #But that's by the by #I'm just a die hard rani Stan #sweet tooth netflix #johnny abbot #aditya singh #rani singh #tommy jepperd #sol talks sweet tooth

The Reappearance of Rachel Price - Review

*NOT SPOILER FREE*

So first of all, I loved this book so much. I was on page 45 at midday today, then 400 pages later, finished it at 9pm. Holly Jackson you have done it again. I was so hooked, I couldn't put it down. I loved the complexities of the story. It reminded me of some of my other favourites like Room (Emma Donoghue), The Leaving (Tara Altebrando), and, of course, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder.

The plot was amazingly twisty, full of layers and puzzles for me to try to figure out along the way. I found Bel to be a less likeable protagonist than Pippa, but I warmed up to her eventually, and I thought the gradual unpacking of her abandonment issues and trauma was brilliantly elaborated upon across the plot. (Side note: The car imagery went crazy hard, I loved how it boiled down to who really left her alone). She was an amazing unreliable narrator, the way she swayed my bias towards certain characters as the book went on was really impressive.

I loved Ash as a character, especially the continuous descriptions of his crazy outfits (he's so me), however I would have liked to see a little more of him as a person. He felt a little bit like a substitute to complete the pip-ravi murder duo dynamic. I also felt Carter's character was a little bit underdeveloped. I immediately saw elements of disordered eating in her character, with Shelly's continuous comments on her food, as well as the talk about her ballet as its notoriously an industry that fosters starving yourself in favour of 'looking good'. I thought this would become a more glaring issue, especially given Bel's ignoring her in favour of her problems with Rachel as the book went on, but I felt the payoff wasn't quite there.

I thought the framework of the true crime documentary was really interesting, but maybe not as necessary as the blurb/beginning chapters made it sound. As I got lost in the mystery, the importance of the filming dropped off the radar and I didn't really think it was needed.

Overall, I loved the book, it sucked me in and I couldn't focus on any of my actual work while I was thinking about it, but I didn't think it was quite at the level of the agggtm series, and was maybe a little bit too complicated. That being said, I loved the layers of the story!

'because you're human, more human than I could ever be'

Johnny is quite literally a manifestation of Douglas's good side. He keeps him around, 'protects' him, keeps him alive, but he treats him terribly, tries to bully him into submitting. He chokes his goodness into submission and forces it to stay silent.

Until he finally kills it. And it kills him too

anyway the actual point of fandom is to inspire each other. reading each other's fics and admiring each other's art and saying wow i love this and i feel something and i want to invoke this in other people, i want to write a sentence that feels like a meteor shower, i want to paint a kiss with such tenderness it makes you ache, i want to create something that someone else somewhere will see it and think oh, i need to do that too, right now. i am embracing being a corny cunt on main to say inspiring each other is one of the things humanity is best at and one of the things fandom is built for and i think that's beautiful

#Not to be sappy but without fandom I never would have become a writer #And I maybe never wpuld have been an artist at all
